[QUOTE="Mechanicalmehem, post: 1622765, member: 13412"] I don't know personally about what is best, however some protection is absoluetly better than none! I personally get a lot of BS from my coworkers due to the fact that I wear hearing protection at work. (they are always indicating I am a ground crew for a plane) There are always loud impacts going on, air ratchets(high pitched squeal they do drives me nuts), air hammers, etc. I can already tell that after only a few years not wearing protection that I have a slightly deminished hearing capacity as well as a very light ringing(luckily its not worse) that I primarily notice when I have managed to calm down/wind down for the evening. Protect your hearing, Hell to be honest with you as far as ones I would recomend, I'd go with the browning ones I get from academy, like $20 have a NRR of 32(highest I have personally seem) they are the slimmer ones etc. I know not exactly what you are looking for, but for the time being better than nothing, I'd prefer ear plugs but I guess I get sweat in my ears and they start itching and drive me nuts personally. I dunno. --Mech [/QUOTE]
